Stuck in the Past (Sequel to Stuck in the Future)

Chapter 13

"What did I tell you about not giving me the odds?! What's the plan?"

"We turn the pirates against Nadakhan.It has happened before, it can happen again."

Nya kicked a pirate in the face as he ran up behind her, hitting him to the ground. "But, Zane, two pirates turned against him in the other timeline! Not hundreds! That's impossible!"

Zane's icy blue eyes stared into hers. " I see no other option. Cole, Maya, and Pixal are in no shape to fight. We are most definitely losing.

"Friends....free." Maya mumbled, and Nya looked to her daughter, whose eyes were slowly refocusing on the world.

"Blade....open." She said, trying to walk away. Nya gripped her daughter's shoulder, stopping her from going anywhere else.

"Maya, what?"

"Open the...Blade, free....team."

Zane suddenly made a shield of ice around them, and vibrations echoed throughout the earth.

"That must've been the ship." Nya said, and Zane nodded.

"Wait, free your friends? That could work!" Nya said, suddenly realizing what Maya ment as she watched the pirates pound against the shield.

"Guys, we have a plan. If we retrieve Nadakhan's Blade, we can free the future Ninja of Ninjago." Zane said into the coms.

"Great!" Kai said, his voice sounding metallic as it entered their ears, "How do we do that?"

"We need to get Nadakhan out in the open." Zane said, breaking a hole in his ice shield, "Jay, can you do that? Jay?"

No response.

"Jay!" Nya said frantically into the coms. Zane sighed, suddenly remembering.

"Jay turned his communicator off."

"Well, we need to get his attention somehow!" Nya exclaimed, and Maya slowly nodded. But, before they could say anything, Nadakhan appeared over the battlefield, floating in the air.

"Kill them! Kill them all!"

"That isn't good." Maya said, and the pirates attacked stronger than they had before. Maya grabbed a spare sword from Nya's sheath, and began to swing, despite being sore. She already lost her friends, she couldn't lose her family.

They were going to win. They had to.

Maya found herself drawing near Kai and Keith amidst the fight. She saw that they were back to back, shooting fire at any enemy that faced them.

"Hi, Maya!" Kaith said, waving his sword in the air." She shot lighting in the air as a response.

"Maya! Use your lightning strikes again to hit Nadakhan out of the air!" Kai hollered, and she reached her hand into the air, summoning all of the power she could. She felt the static in the air answer her call, and soon lighting began raining down once again, but more controlled, more precise.

She saw a bolt come so, so close to hitting the Djinn, but he saw the move coming, and teleported to another area of the sky, only to get hit by a burst of water, strong and sure.

Maya watched as more water came from a figure in the sky, a figure that appeared to be made of water, hitting Nadakhan, distracting him enough that he couldn't teleport away.

Nadakhan fell to the earth.

Kai shouted in victory, and Mo and Akita, as wolves, ran up to Nadakhan, who had now righted himself on the ground, and pounced on him. Maya bolted for Nadakhan, and saw Kai, Cole, and her father doing the same.
